ROX2SJ22K Resistors

Through Hole Resistors provide reliable protection from high-voltage surges that can damage equipment and cause power outages, loss of data, and significant costs in repairs. ROX2SJ22K is a widely used and popular type of through-hole resistor which has a relatively basic application field and complex working principle.

What is the ROX2SJ22K Resistor?

The ROX2SJ22K Through Hole Resistor is a precision 2-watt resistor which is intended for use in a wide range of applications. It is a low-voltage device, typically rated at 22K ohms, and it is made from a specialized dielectric material. Its small size helps to make it well suited to applications where space is limited and its excellent thermal properties make it a preferable choice for applications involving high currents.

Application Field of the ROX2SJ22K Resistor

Due to its special properties, the ROX2SJ22K is commonly used in applications such as motor control, lighting control, audio equipment, instrumentation and test equipment, switching and conditioning, and communications systems. It is also used in applications involving high-voltage and high-frequency components such as computer motherboards and even microwaves, as it offers a durable, reliable and cost-effective solution for surge protection.

Working Principle of the ROX2SJ22K Resistor

The ROX2SJ22K Resistor is designed to be able to absorb and dissipate surges of high-voltage of a wide range of frequencies. It works by providing an electrically conductive path between the high-voltage side and the low-voltage side of an electrical circuit. The resistor also acts as a heat sink, absorbing the heat produced by the high-voltage surge and dissipating it to the surrounding air or other medium.

The process begins when the high-voltage surge passes through the resistor. The resistor’s normal impedance is bypassed, allowing the surge to pass through and dissipate into the lower-voltage circuit. This allows the high-voltage surge to be dissipated safely and without damaging the circuit’s components.

The ROX2SJ22K Resistor is an economical and reliable solution for surge protection in a wide variety of applications. It has a long lifespan and is able to provide superior protection from high-voltage surges without adding any additional costs to the circuit.
